What a great sneak-peek! I love looking at what other people have on their bookshelves. Sometimes it's all you need to know about them (and I like French Girl though I've never met her for having COOKIES on her bookshelf!)

What an artful bookcase...and collage...and clever use of paper bags! FG is, like yourself, very creative. I could have used that little penguin's method this a.m. Also can relate to the magazine collection...my Elle Decor mountain is growing. Thx for the glimpse into FG's lovely serene space.

RE: Frances' comment: ARE there people who have no books????Re: Where are the cookies?: Talk about hiding in plain sight!Re: French cookbooks not available in translation: pourquoi pas?Re: clutterers vs. non-clutterers: I am a hybrid! Parts of my home are totally uncluttered but my workspace is clutter incarnate!

French Girl has extremely tidy, ordered bookshelves, and a nice line in recycled decor. I also have an unhealthy interest in the content of other people's bookshelves.Off now to find my inner penguin ...

I thought it was going to be some boring previous post, but it seriously compensated for my time. I will publish a website link to this page on my weblog. I am certain my website visitors will discover that pretty useful.http://myblogcelebrities.blogspot.com
